Evil is wooing Girl Scouts
Group wants to know Girl Scouts, Planned Parenthood ties
FORT WORTH - Nearly 80 percent of the nation's Girl Scout councils will not say whether they have affiliations with Planned Parenthood, a pro-life group announced. A survey by American Life League's STOPP International stemmed from controversy in Waco. STOPP International said it asked 315 Girl Scout councils whether they had a relationship with Planned Parenthood, which provides various "education and health services," including abortions. Jim Sedlak, executive director of Stafford, Va.-based STOPP International, said his group is not at war with Girl Scouts but is trying to protect youngsters from the "evils" of Planned Parenthood. Officials with New York-based Girl Scouts did not immediately return calls seeking comment Monday.

"We are astonished to find that of the councils that responded to our questions, 26% have relationships with Planned Parenthood," said Jim Sedlak, executive director of STOPP International, "but what is even more surprising is that 79% of Girl Scout councils have not disclosed their position on Planned Parenthood by failing to answer a simple question-Do you have any relationship with Planned Parenthood?"
